Source: Akok Akok Plans To Enter Transfer Portal

Georgetown forward Akok Akok plans to enter the transfer portal, per source.

The 6-foot-10 big averaged 6.5 points, 6.2 rebounds and 2.0 blocks per game for the Hoyas last season. He started his career at UConn, where he played 28 minutes per game as a freshman and had his sophomore season cut short by an Achilles injury. During his junior year, he played sparingly in 23 games and transferred to Georgetown after the season.

Akok’s name has circulated as a potential transfer candidate for months. The rumblings initially started in March after the dismissal of Patrick Ewing. Akok reaffirmed his commitment to the Hoyas after the hiring of Ed Cooley and the rumors died down for most of the summer. Speculation began again after Jose Perez returned to West Virginia following a brief stint in the transfer portal. Akok and Perez were high school teammates at Putnam Science Academy and remain close friends. Georgetown blog Hilltop Hoops outlined other signs of concern in this post.

Now, the rumors have turned into reality as Akok plans to enter the transfer portal in the coming days.

As for where he could potentially land?
